“Each parking garage at Microsoft is unique and is kind of a maze to maneuver your car through. Fortunately, I figured out that going to the bottom level was the best plan and I was right and there was plenty of parking.”

Transportation

FlexPass

Volt employees who work onsite at Microsoft are eligible to receive a FlexPass. FlexPass holders can ride the Metro and Sound Transit busses and trains for free, can receive a Metro Vanpool subsidy and can participate in the Guaranteed Ride Home Free program. To get your FlexPass, show your MS badge to any MS receptionist.

Microsoft Shuttles

Volt employees can also use the Microsoft Shuttles to get from one Microsoft building to another. Just tell the receptionist what building you need to go to and he/she will call a shuttle for you.

Shuttles are on request from building to building, including buildings on other Microsoft campuses. Shuttles stop at the Transit Center beginning at 7:06 AM and run every 15 minutes until 9:00 AM. After 9:00 AM, the shuttles run every 30 minutes. Additionally, you can take the Millennium shuttle to the Bear Creek Park and Ride.

Request shuttles to your destination at the reception desk in your building. After hours, you may request shuttles at ext. 36000.

Transit Center

Microsoft shuttles stop at the Transit Center beginning at 7:06 AM which meets bus #545 (from Seattle). The shuttles run every 15 minutes until 9:00 AM and will take people to any Microsoft building. After 9:00 AM, the shuttles come every 30 minutes.
